After it came to light that the Seventh Division player was going to leave the institution due to parental authority, the Italian club seeks to reach an agreement with the Millonario.
After the scandal that erupted when it was revealed that the Seventh Division youth Lucas Scarlato would leave River due to parental authority, in the last few hours Parma opened negotiations to leave a percentage of a future sale to the Millonario.
When the news broke, there were conflicting statements and tensions between both clubs quickly escalated. Lorena Cuervo, the mother of the 16-year-old youth, defended the representative Martín Guastadisegno and pointed against the Núñez institution because she said they "did not take care" of the footballer and blamed the management.
In the early days of this year, the conflict continued. River filed a formal complaint with FIFA against the agent, whom they hold responsible for the premature departure of a youth footballer without financial compensation. The claim pointed to an alleged maneuver that would have harmed the club's assets and training process.
At this time, negotiations have opened from Italy with the Argentine club, although the first proposal they made was rejected. Talks between the parties began after River warned Parma that if they did not reach an agreement, they were determined to take legal action.
Additionally, the Millonario also notified Milan and Sampdoria, clubs that ultimately withdrew from signing the youth, who was one of the main promises of the Youth Divisions.
It is worth noting that this negotiation also began after the Argentine Football Association (AFA) decided not to call up any youth national teams for those minor footballers who, without the agreement of the club they are registered with, leave the institution, a measure that seeks to protect the interests of the institutions.
